Traces in braided categories
With any even Hecke symmetry R (that is a Hecke type solution of the Yang-Baxter equation) we associate a quasitensor category. We formulate a condition on R implying that the constructed category is rigid and its commutativity isomorphisms RU,V are natural in the sense of [T]. We show that this condition leads to rescaling the initial Hecke symmetry. We suggest a new way of introducing traces ...
متن کاملBraided Near-group Categories
A near-group category is an additively semisimple category with a product such that all but one of the simple objects is invertible. We classify braided structures on near-group categories, and give explicit numerical formulas for their associativity and commutativity morphisms. 1. Results We consider near-group categories; that is, semisimple monoidal categories, whose set of simples consists ...
متن کاملBraided and coboundary monoidal categories
We discuss and compare the notions of braided and coboundary monoidal categories. Coboundary monoidal categories are analogues of braided monoidal categories in which the role of the braid group is replaced by the cactus group. We focus on the categories of representations of quantum groups and crystals and explain how while the former is a braided monoidal category, this structure does not pas...
متن کاملTraces in Monoidal Categories
Abstract. This paper contains the construction, examples and properties of a trace and a trace pairing for certain morphisms in a monoidal category with switching isomorphisms. Our construction of the categorical trace is a common generalization of the trace for endomorphisms of dualizable objects in a balanced monoidal category and the trace of nuclear operators on a topological vector space w...
متن کاملOn Lie Algebras in Braided Categories
The category of group-graded modules over an abelian group G is a monoidal category. For any bicharacter of G this category becomes a braided monoidal category. We define the notion of a Lie algebra in this category generalizing the concepts of Lie super and Lie color algebras. Our Lie algebras have n-ary multiplications between various graded components. They possess universal enveloping algeb...
